Soldering manually TSSOP is a piece of cake. Using solder paste + hot air even the SQF40A (5x5mm and 10pins per edge) is solderable from the first try. I have soldered 2.5Ghz SQF parts with success. My recommandation will be "prototype directly on the final PCB design". In that way you'll learn two different things: how to design multilayer PCB and how to document yourself for such a job for creating successfully PCB in one revision.
